[0039] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so as to fully understand how the present invention uses technical means to solve technical problems and the implementation process of achieving corresponding technical effects and implement accordingly. The embodiments of the present invention and each feature in the embodiments can be combined with each other on the premise of not conflicting, and the formed technical solutions are all within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0040] As Figure 1 shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a folder processing method, including the following steps:

[0041] In the first step, in response to a first operation instruction of the user, a first folder meeting a preset condition is displayed on the display interface.

[0042] As Figure 3 shown, for example, the first operation instruction of the user is that the user double-clicks on the blank area of the display interface of the smart terminal, or the user slides a preset distance on the blank area of the display interface of the smart terminal. In response to the operation instruction of the user, the first folder is displayed. The first folder is one of the folders already existing on the display interface, such as the folder with the highest usage frequency or the folder with the lowest usage frequency. The display area of the first folder is located above the display interface.

[0043] In the second step, APP icons included in the first folder are displayed in the display area of the first folder.

[0044] As Figure 4 shown, after the first folder is displayed on the display interface of the smart terminal, the APP icons included in the first folder are displayed in the display area of the first folder. By default, the APP icons are displayed in descending order of the usage frequency of the APPs.

[0045] As Figure 2 shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a folder processing method, including the following steps:

[0046] In the first step, the user turns on the smart terminal, and APP icons and folders are displayed on the display interface of the smart terminal. The smart terminal is, for example, a mobile phone or a tablet computer.

[0047] In the second step, it is determined whether the user double-clicks on the blank area of the display interface of the smart terminal, that is, the first operation instruction of the user is that the user double-clicks on the blank area of the display interface of the smart terminal.

[0048] In the third step, as Figure 3As shown, when the user double-clicks on the blank area of the display interface of the smart terminal, the first folder that meets the preset conditions pops up on the display interface of the smart terminal, and the APP icons are displayed. Here, the preset condition is the folder with the highest user usage frequency, that is, the first folder is the folder with the highest user usage frequency. For example, the folder with the most usage frequency is located relatively far back on the display interface of the smart terminal, and the user needs to slide multiple times to find this folder. As Figure 4 shown, the user can set intelligent updates for the folder. The second operation instruction is for the user to operate the "intelligent update button" of the folder. At the same time, as Figure 5 shown, the user can set the time for intelligent updates. The third operation instruction is for the user to operate the "set update time button" of the folder. The function of intelligent updates is to automatically count the usage of the APPs and automatically update the APPs in the folder at the specified time. It can be updated once or multiple times after reaching the specified time. The preset update strategy is, for example, to sort the APPs according to the usage frequency from high to low. When the intelligent update function is clicked to close, "set update time" automatically selects the option of "never update". And when the intelligent update function is clicked to open, "set update time" will be processed as follows:

[0049] a) If there is a value set by the user, then "set update time" will preferentially select the option set by the user;

[0050] b) If the user has not set it, then "set update time" will use the default value, that is, update once every 15 days.

[0051] Function of setting update time: There are options of updating once every 15 days, once every 30 days, once every 90 days, never update, and customizing the update days. When "set update time" is set to "never update", "intelligent update" will be disabled. If other options are set, then the enabling status of the "intelligent update" switch will be judged:

[0052] a) If "intelligent update" is on, then the normal setting process will be followed;

[0053] b) If "intelligent update" is off, then the user will be prompted to turn on this switch.

[0054] For customizing the update days, the value is a positive integer from 1 to 365

[0055] Fourth step, judge whether there are APPs in this folder. If there are, go to the next step; if not, prompt the user to add APP icons to the folder; As Figure 6As shown, when prompting the user to add an APP icon, the user can add their favorite APP icons on the desktop through the '+' sign in the folder. When there is no APP in the folder, the top layer is the 'Intelligent Addition' dialog box. Clicking on the area outside the dialog box closes the dialog box, and only then can the functions of the folder interface be used. Similar to a normal folder, clicking the '+' sign can add an APP to the folder. Alternatively, the user can add APP icons with high usage frequencies by judging whether to click the 'OK' button in 'Intelligent Addition'. Clicking the 'OK' button arranges the APP icons with high usage frequencies in the folder in the order of usage frequency and turns on the 'Intelligent Update' flag. The 'Intelligent Addition' function is for the case where the folder is empty, prompting the user to actively add an APP to the folder. Clicking OK adds the APPs to the folder in order according to the usage frequency of the terminal APPs. If no APPs with high usage frequencies are found, such as when a new device is powered on, the system default APPs will be added to the folder. If the user clicks Cancel, the dialog box closes. If the user then clicks on the area outside the folder, the folder will be hidden.

[0056] As Figure 7 shown, the user can choose to edit the APP icons in the folder. The fourth operation instruction, for example, dragging the APP button in the folder, the removal function is that the user can remove an APP by dragging the APP icon outside the folder area, or after long - pressing to enter the selection mode, multiple APPs can be selected for removal. The replacement function is that after the user long - presses to enter the selection mode, single or multiple APPs can be selected for replacement operations. The replacement mode is one - to - one replacement, that is, if one APP is selected, only one APP can be replaced, and so on.

[0057] As Figure 8 shown, the folder supports multi - page display of APP icons.

[0058] The APP icons in the folder will be synchronized with the APP icons on the display interface, that is, the APP icons in the folder will exist only if the APP icons exist on the display interface.

[0059] As Figure 9 shown, the present invention provides a folder processing device, including:

[0060] A detection module: used to detect the instruction of the user double - clicking on the non - icon area of the display interface;

[0061] A display module: displaying a specified folder on the display interface, and displaying APP icons that meet the preset conditions in the display area of the specified folder.

[0062] In some embodiments, the folder processing device further includes:

[0063] Sorting module: used to sort and display APP icons according to a specified sorting method.

[0064] In some embodiments, the folder processing device further includes:

[0065] Data update module: used to update APP icons according to the update time or update frequency set by the user.

[0066] In some embodiments, the folder processing device further includes:

[0067] Editing module: used to edit APP icons, such as adding, replacing, or deleting APP icons.
